From Istanbul to London: Why EventCAT’s Real-Time AI Translation Has Earned Global Educational Institutions’ Trust for Years
November 20, 2025 – The Marble Arch Hotel, London.
Researchers from Oxford and Imperial College, AWS engineers, Intel architects, global entrepreneurs, and professionals from diverse backgrounds gathered on a stage buzzing with discussions after each presentation and the constant exchange of ideas between sessions. Yet one practical question remained clear: could participants who spoke different languages truly follow the sessions with the same level of understanding? Even with experts from the UK, Europe, and Asia in the same room, language remained one of the biggest barriers in science and technology conferences.
Real-Time AI Translation: The Game Changer for Event Experience
The challenge was addressed on-site by EventCAT, XL8’s real-time AI translation solution. Participants could instantly access translated content simply by scanning a QR code, without any installation or additional equipment. Below are the most frequently asked questions at the event:
Q1. Can we really trust the accuracy of real-time AI translation?
A. EventCAT uses a model specialized for conversational language, taking into account the context of preceding sentences. This ensures extremely high accuracy in actual presentation and discussion scenarios. It outperforms similar services worldwide, with over 9 out of 10 first-time users willing to use it again.
Q2. Can anyone use it immediately? What preparation is required?
A. Yes. All you need is a laptop and an internet connection. There’s no need for additional equipment, app downloads, or interpretation booths, significantly reducing operational burden and costs.
Q3. How many languages are supported? Is it only English-Korean?
A. EventCAT supports more than 50 languages, including English and Korean. It can instantly create a multilingual environment for academic conferences, corporate events, workshops, and more.
Q4. Is it actually used by educational institutions and universities?
A. Yes. Educational institutions across the U.S., Europe, and Asia actively use EventCAT in lectures and workshops, providing high satisfaction by removing language barriers for both instructors and students.
Q5. What differentiates EventCAT from other AI interpretation services?
A. XL8 has been a pioneer in AI video translation for global OTT platforms since 2019. Leveraging expertise built from thousands of professional content pieces, EventCAT now delivers world-class accuracy and stability in real-time AI interpretation. This accumulated experience is the service’s most significant differentiator.
EventCAT’s Real-Time AI Translation: Breaking Global Language Barriers
Thanks to this technical foundation, participants at the Future AI Summit could follow presentations at the same pace, with high comprehension across sessions. Researchers from diverse language backgrounds asked questions simultaneously, and networking sessions flowed with uninterrupted discussions.
Event organizers confirmed through direct feedback that “no presentations were missed due to language,” and presenters reported that “audience reactions were more immediate.”
From Istanbul to London: The Real Reason EventCAT Was Chosen Again
Soner Ergen of thetelescope.ai, who organized the event, emphasized:
"The reason we chose XL8’s EventCAT again was clear. Its seamless user experience allowed participants to use it independently, even with limited operational staff, and it performed reliably from last year’s Istanbul event to this year’s London summit. Above all, the dedicated support from the EventCAT CS team is unmatched by any other service."
This testimonial highlights the practical utility and reliability of EventCAT that Q&A responses alone cannot fully convey, it’s a real-world validation.
Real-Time AI Translation Defining the Future of Global Events
What Future AI Summit 2025 demonstrated was not merely a “technology showcase,” but a new standard for international event management. In an environment free from language barriers, more participants understand sessions, more conversations happen, and deeper collaboration emerges naturally.
EventCAT enables global communication in the simplest, most accurate, and most cost-effective way. Your event can experience this new level of connection.
